    Quoted from ZeldaOoT:

    What on Earth did they do that for?

    I'd guess to keep the dust off

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    The gameplay was a little hairy, but it still made the cut.

    Quoted from Liftserv:

    Maybe he was using the vacuum to increase ball speed or even air balls

    I would have thought the vacuum was to award a breeze

    Quoted from Pecos:

    My first hack!
    [quoted image]
    I needed a 300K Ω resistor. I had 100K Ω resistors. Hey, it seems to work fine and those resistors get plenty of air for cooling!

    Now your gonna have to do ALL of them that-a-way

    Quoted from robertmee:

    Lamp cord is mostly 14 or 12 awg, so it actually is better than 20 awg from a current capacity standpoint.

    Most lamp cord is actually #18 gauge, larger #16 gauge is available also. https://www.homedepot.com/b/Electrical-Wire-Lamp-Wire/N-5yc1vZc575
